Woof card and emergency!

Hi everyone, my working day on Tuesday was longer than normal, as I
had taken a phone call in the office while I was finishing off my work
to let my manager know that we had a potential major incident. Which was
interesting, as I hadn't been in the hospital when it had happened
before.

We (including admin - me!) were put on high
alert for an incoming large accident, we were told someone had been
killed and to expect large numbers of major injuries. It was
fascinating to see everyone get into emergency mode with everyone having
an empty Theatre allocated for the incoming injured expected, plans
drawn on a white board so everyone knew when and where they should be
when receiving patients to Theatre, everyone having a role with
telephone numbers ready to call in extra staff if needed.

We
were on high alert for about half an hour, when we were told that there
were 10 minor injuries coming in and to stand down. The people who were
due to have gone off earlier could now make their way home, including
me. It was such a relief to hear that there were only minor injuries
for the sake of the patients,.

For me to see my
colleagues in a major incident situation, made me realise that these
ordinary, fun loving great men and women, I work with, are heroes and
were doing their work as they normally do every day, but not as I have
seen it before. I am so fortunate to have been included.

After all that to boring - my card LOL.

It's a card I did after trying to get my mojo going, still in trouble with mojo though.

I
had a look through my sketches to see if one would pop out and let my
imagination go and thankfully one did from Splitcoasters.

My card
is made with papers and elements from a scrapbook kit A Dogs Life by Gina
Cabrera, I 3D'd the dog and ball and cut some grass out on my Cricut from a file by Cards by Bird, I then placed the sentiment on the top also from the same kit. The inside is all digi and done in PS.

Glad everything worked out well in the end and that the injuries where not too serious ! fantastic card and love how you do the 3D just amazing it looks so real. Your mojo looks fine to me my friend but I no what you mean.
